1889Best.-Nr. 101185Londres, John Murray, 1889, in-8, 2 parties en 1 volume : XVI-693 pp, Percaline verte de l'éditeur, "Of the older and honoured chiefs in natural science, many unfortunately are still opposed to evolution in every form" (p.1). "It is only our natural prejudice, and that arrogance which made our forefathers declare that they were descended from demi-gods, which leads us to demur to this conclusion" (p. 25). Mention de seconde édition et 25e mille : il s'agit d'un retirage de l'édition en un volume de 1888. Figures dans le texte. Le 24 Octobre 1859, Darwin fait paraitre The Origin of Species, où il expose sa théorie sur l'évolution des organismes par la sélection naturelle agissant en milieu animal et végétal. Treize ans plus tard, il publie The Descent of Man, où il prouve que l'homme est le descendant modifié d'espèces préexistantes, puis développe la théorie de la sélection sexuelle, facteur également d'évolution des espèces et de différenciation des races humaines. L'ouvrage rattache enfin la généalogie de l'homme à celle de l'animal et étend le transformisme à l'espèce humaine; Darwin y démontre la filiation à partir de singes de l'Ancien Monde. Afin d'établir sa théorie, il compare l'évolution du développement des embryons humains à ceux des animaux inférieurs. L'ouvrage a donné lieu à d'innombrables caricatures jouant sur la ressemblance entre le singe et l'homme. C'est aussi ici que le naturaliste défend le processus de civilisation humaine, qui protège et assure la survie des faibles, à l'inverse de la sélection naturelle qui les élimine.

Best.-Nr. 57847Printed for R. Baldwin. London. 1786. The Tenth Edition. . pp. 384 xiv Index ii Advertisement. Engraved portrait frontispiece dated 1782 the year after she died one folding plate of stove-fires. Original sheep now worn along spine at corners and lower board edge the first half of gathering 'E' misbound one leaf with a couple of edge tears without loss LACKING the two plates at the end of the text showing Plans of a Grand Table of Two Covers with the facsimile printed signature of Mrs. Raffald on page 1 and the real signature of ANN DARWIN Oct 4th 1796 at the head of the title. Possibly ANN DARWIN 1727-1813 the fourth child of Robert Darwin and Charles Darwin's great-aunt. The signature does not really match that given by FREEMAN in Darwin Pedigrees 1984 but given the differences in age when each of them was written perhaps there is a link. It otherwise remains tantalisingly enigmatic. Printed for R. Baldwin. London. 1786. The Tenth Edition. unknown
